Ethan, I am complaing about UltraCards practice of showing up on CIS on a regular basis, announcing a specific date for UltraCard's release, which ends up being wrong. My advice to these guys is to keep their mouths closed until they are finished and can sell someone their product. PgS never had a presence on CIS prior to it's release. All promises, as far as I know, were solely from advertisements in magazines, which I never take seriously. Again, I wish the guys at UltraCard only good things, but PLEASE no more projected release dates. Just tell us WHEN its already released!!! -RSL-

Is it now possible to assume that Ultracard IS NO MORE? We haven't heard anything from Mr. Ultravapour (Mike) for couple of weeks now. Raman

Well, folks around these parts were hammering him for talking about release dates he couldn't keep. He's taking the advice and shutting up. We should all be happy. — Art

Raman, According to Mike UltraCard has been released and the demo is waiting in DL1 for the sysop to merge it, so that we can get at it. I hope it's GREAT! -RSL-

PageStream also made promises to anyone who might have called them up. — Ethan

Ethan, I have seldom called up any retail outlet and been told that they didn't know when something would be available. They always seem to be expecting to get a shipment in a week or so (this can go on for months). What started to annoy me were these unrequested incorrect announce dates. But enough of this! I understand that the Demo is sitting in DL1 awaiting merging by our great and noble Sysops. May they do this swiftly and then we can see what UltraCard can do. I hope it's GREAT! -RSL-
